Bassano Swimming Pool - Bassano, Alberta

Derek McGowan

A well fun outdoor pool that is typically open from May to August. One waterslide, diving board, deep end and shallow end, and a great wading pool for young children with some spray appliances. Viewing area is open for family members that don't want to swim. A concession is usually open and now supports debit card payments.

Unfortunately the floor in the change rooms does not have great drainage and can become quite slippery when water pools on it. During busy times this water turns to mud puddles. While the staff does a reasonable job of trying to keep on top of this it just isn't possible during g busy days. A cheap pair of flip flops are highly recommended for the change rooms.

They also offer some opportunities such as aquafit, swimming lessons and new this year aqua Zumba. Hours fluctuate on a week by week basis so going to their Facebook page is usually the best way to find the current hours. That said, public swim usually starts at 1 pm to 7 or 8 pm, depending on activities that day.

Overall a great experience and we'll worth the trip to Bassano.

This pool is amazing. Not busy on a hot Thursday afternoon, has a splash pad that’s inside a shallow pool area, pool with a water slide and diving board. Water slide goes directly into the pool. Our kids loved it. And so did we! Life guards on duty. Cost our family $21 to swim which is a good price. We’ve traveled to lots of diff pools and have paid anywhere from 15-30$ for a pool. Change rooms, washrooms and showers. Seemed clean. Lounge chairs around the pool. Not a ton of shade. Loved the Book tree at the entrance. Bassano is lucky to have this pool. We enjoyed it!

The pool and facilities are great. The plastic beach chairs need replacing though, lots are cracked and pinch when you sit on them. My toddlers foot slipped through a broken one and cut up her foot, life guards were good about helping her but the first aid kit was bare and needs to be replenished too. Almost ruined her day.
Just bring your own chairs.

Great place to take young kids swimming. Well maintained and clean. Staff are excellent. The slide is always a hit with the kids. It gets busy in the summer but not really crowded.

Great place to take the kids for a fun outdoor day. Plenty of lifeguards. Can get quite crowded, but is still a LOT of fun. There are loungers and a grassy area to lay a blanket and bring a picnic!

This is a great outdoor pool! It has a water slide, a diving board and a kiddie pool. The water is kept nice and warm 28-30 degrees Celsius! Open between June and September.
